If they offered me an opportunity to be their concert photographer, I'd accept it in a heartbeat, but I have no formal training and I don't know much about cameras, so that could never happen. All I know how to do is get the right angle and zoom, and wait for the moment to be right to capture gold moments on camera. There's no way a tiny unknown photo hobbyist as myself could ever expect to be anything more than an opportunistic photographer when they come to my city and I snag front row. Thanks for the vote of confidence, though. It helped pick my spirits up.

Thank you. All the bands I have taken great concert photos of with that level of skill over the years, I have never heard back from them, even after I sent them the link with the photos I took. I wonder if they looked at them at all? I even sent the album with the Offspring photos to the band. But I doubt they looked through them. The rain that day made me about the only person to get such great shots so up close. I was bummed no other pics were posted as a new album for that concert. I was looking forward to see the crowd and stage and possibly me holding my sign. But there was no Philly album.

I said, "Hi, Greg. I'm the creepy girl." He chuckled, then wanted a handshake and I gave it. I wanted a hug and he gave it. One of his sons was there, too. Cute. Then Pete got him to autograph my sign for me because I was too polite to ask myself since he was on his way to eat. Pete also took this of photo of him holding it. - 8/2/2014.https://twitter.com/PeteParada/statu...56317329436672

It's been said before, but I have proven that Greg ass does exist. It just gets overshadowed by Dexter's.

I keep adding more as I rediscover them, but I threw together all of the photos and video stills I could find of Greg K smiling to post on the K Page on twitter. He smiles much more often than people generally give him credit for. I think I'm up to 42 so far. Even the ones that don't look like smiles are smiles when they're on Greg's face.
It wasn't quite this complete when Noodles saw it, but he sure seemed impressed!
